6.1.1 ILOM Interfaces
ILOM supports multiple interfaces for accessing its features and functions. You can
choose to use a browser-based web interface or a command-line interface.

6.1.1.1 Web Interface
The web interface provides an easy-to-use browser interface that enables you to log in
to the SP, then to perform system management and monitoring.
6.1.1.2 Command-Line Interface
The command-line interface enables you to operate ILOM using keyboard commands
and adheres to industry-standard DMTF-style CLI and scripting protocols. ILOM
supports SSH v2.0 and v3.0 for secure access to the CLI. Using the CLI, you can
reuse existing scripts with Sun systems, and automate tasks using familiar interfaces.
6.2 Important Notes Before You Begin
You require at least one static IP address for Service Processor (ILOM access).
Note the following:
•
As a general convention, root is used as the default user name.
•
The default value of the Service Processor (SP ILOM) password is welcome1.
6.3 Connecting to ILOM via the Network
Under normal circumstances, you can access ILOM via the network. You can use the
Ethernet connection method to connect to the ILOM. You must know the ILOM IP
address. The default ILOM IP address is
192.168.1.200
(netmask
255.255.255.0
). You
can use either the CLI or the web interface to access ILOM. Alternatively, you can
launch a remote KVM session to access ILOM.
Note:
You can use this connection method only if ILOM is physically connected to
the admin network through the
NET MGT
port of the Oracle Exalytics In-
Memory Machine.
Oracle recommends that you use this connection method to access ILOM for
the Oracle Business Intelligence Machine.
